May 20, 2019
ENDORSING – Midwest
Closed Level One Tournaments
Wisconsin has been
allocated 14 quota spots for players in the 12, 14, 16, and 18 year old
divisions, and 4 spots for the 10 & under division. The
14 spots will be offered to the quarterfinalist of the main draw and 6 of the 8
players in the consolation quarterfinals. The last two spots will be
determined by the Midwest Standings list at the time of the draw. The 4
spots in the 10 & under division will be awarded to the semifinalists.
* Remember: This tournament is a play-and-complete tournament. Play and complete is defined as playing all points,
including the final point of the match. No match (including any FIC
matches) may end in retirement, walkover or default. No player will be endorsed who defaults
or withdraws from the tournament. There will be no appeal process this
year:
·
A player who does not Play and Complete his/her final match in the
District Qualifier will not be eligible for endorsement to the USTA/Midwest
Closed Junior Outdoor Championships;
·
Play and Complete is defined as playing all points, including the final point, of the match;
·
A retirement, walkover or default in the player's final match of the
District Qualifier (including any feed-in consolation (FIC) matches) will cause
the player to no longer be eligible to be endorsed to the Midwest Closed;
·
There shall be no appeal of the Play and Complete requirement permitted.
2. Players in the BG12-18 must register for
the Midwest Closed by Monday, June 10th
and email judyveloff@gmail.com with their confirmation number.
The Endorser is required to submit the list of Wisconsin’s Endorsed

register NOW as your credit card will not be billed unless you are
endorsed. You will not be endorsed without the entry confirmation number.
NOTE: The deadline for the
